cbmkgd Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 Edit the menu.lst for grub. You'll find -- by a quick search -- proper instructions in many posts in the HomebrewMac sub-forums. I suggest not trying to reactivate acronis os selector if you still want to keep ubuntu booting. Grub is very good, no need of acronis anyways.

cbmkgd Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 You are presently in one of the Homebrew Mac sub-forum. Someone repeated instructions in your other thread.
